Walking out of the cabin to the deck of the bow of the ship, he looked up, and saw that on the sea not far from the Fuzhu, a Japanese warship was floating on the opposite side, and a tongue-in-cheek man on it was shouting to Li Chunfeng with the same horn.

I took the binoculars that I couldn't hand over and looked over, and I saw that in the distance behind this warship, there were dozens of identical warships, each of which was full of soldiers with full armor, holding long hooks, spears, axes and other weapons, looking nervously ahead.

"Are you in combat mode?" Li Hong opened his mouth and asked Li Chunfeng next to him.

I don't know when His Royal Highness was standing behind him, Li Chunfeng, who was startled when he heard Li Hong's words, turned his head and looked at Li Hong standing beside him energetically, looking intently at the rows of warships of the Japanese Kingdom in the distance.

"Back to Your Highness, everything is ready to go to war at any time." Li Chunfeng was also dressed in armor and saluted.

"Just explain your intentions, and if you don't compensate, you will start a war immediately." Li Hong pushed away the armor handed over by Wutian, just took a horizontal knife, and said on the deck.

"Your Highness......." Li Chunfeng was still a little hesitant.

"You don't have to be polite with them, let them see how powerful the husband is." Li Hong looked at the bow of the warship of the Japanese State, and the military generals of the Japanese State who jumped to their feet and scolded, and said coldly.

Only when you completely subdue them, will they respect you, will they wag their tails like dogs and beg for mercy, and they will obey the Tang Dynasty from the bottom of their hearts.

"Arquebus ready to fire!" Li Chunfeng looked at Li Hong, and his mind was instantly filled with what Li Hong said on the deck yesterday, so he ordered in a deep voice.

As Li Chunfeng's order was given from the herald and through the microphone to the various cabins, the whole ship began to tense for a while, and the sails began to slowly rise halfway, and began to move rapidly on the sea like a giant whale in an instant.

"Whew......."

The arquebus quickly fired out of the porthole with a puff of green smoke, and then, visible to the naked eye, struck the deck of the nearest warship.

The arrows of the arquebus are no different from the arrows of normal crossbow arrows, except that they contain explosives with a fuse, which causes them to explode when fired into the hull of the ship.

As the hull of the warship at the forefront began to be blown open, the stone-throwing cart on the warship of the Wa Kingdom carried a ball that turned from red to black in the air, and flew towards the Fuzhu.

However, before he could get close to the Fuzhu, and when he was still about a hundred and ten paces away from the Fuzhu, he quickly fell from the sky and fell into the rough sea, and then suddenly a puff of white smoke rose from the place where the ball fell.

The hull of the Fuzhu began to tilt, the sails on the four masts began to slowly rise, changing direction in the air, and the Fuzhu also began to cruise in the direction of the dozens of warships of the Japanese Kingdom in front of it.

"See, how fast these bastards learned, the sharp weapons on the original warship have been perfectly copied by them, but the range and accuracy are much worse." Li Hong's body leaned along with the hull of the ship, and Li Chunfeng looked at the sea where the white smoke disappeared in an instant, and sneered.

"The warship of the Japanese Kingdom is too small, and the furnace on the warship is not very big, just look at the iron ball that has just fallen into the sea, if the range is longer and the accuracy is higher, it can really pose a threat to us." Li Chunfeng said with a solemn expression.

This kind of iron ball is made of molten iron in the furnace placed on the ship, and at the first time when the iron ball is red, it will be quickly thrown to the enemy ship from the rear stone throwing cart, once it hits the enemy ship, as the iron ball rolls down, it will burn and disrupt the formation of the soldiers on the warship.

Once the iron balls that are still hot are contaminated with other flammable items such as cloth, they will cause a fire to the warship in the first place, so that the ships in the naval battle can no longer concentrate on attacking.

And this is not a weapon of naval warfare that has only been invented in recent years, in fact, during the Three Kingdoms period, there were already warships equipped with furnaces, using the high temperature after the molten iron condensed into iron balls to attack the opponent's ships.

And Cui Zhifen, the governor of the Tang Dynasty Naval Division, including the defeat of the Japanese warships at the mouth of the Baijiang River a few years ago, this tactic made the Japanese warships suffer, the warships were all annihilated, and the soldiers were also either killed or drowned in the sea.

But it has only been less than ten years, and the Wa Kingdom has once again built so many warships, and it has also introduced this high-temperature iron ball attack method.

It is conceivable that if the Wa Kingdom is given another ten years, its strength at sea will be another major threat to Datang.

The Fuzhu cruised outside the attack range of the Japanese warships, and the arquebuses made the Japanese warships defenseless, and the maneuverability of the sailing ships was much more flexible than that of the Japanese warships.

This naval battle is a naval battle, rather a war of unilateral destruction and massacre.

One by one, the warships of the Wa Kingdom rushed out of their so-called ship formation, wanting to let the Fuzhu take care of themselves, so that their other warships could have enough range for the Shangfuzhu.

Like a fish with wings, the Butao Zhu flew on the surface of the sea in the midst of the rough waves and screams, making the other Japanese warships spin in place and cry out in vain.

And in every pursuit, even in a suicidal attempt to get closer, their broad, clumsy hull always struggled to dodge the attacks of the arquebuses on the Fuzhu.

Li Chunfeng is also the first time to really see the real combat effectiveness of the Fuzhu, he also experienced the Battle of Baijiangkou that year, although the Tang Dynasty Navy Division also ended in a complete victory.

But in the process, compared with today, it is simply not an equal magnitude, and the naval battles of those days were extremely dangerous, and ships collided with each other from time to time.

In addition, the number of ships, the number of people, and weapons and equipment of the Tang Dynasty all occupy an absolute advantage, so the battle of Baijiangkou can be completely won, but that victory is the strength of the entire Datang naval division.

And now, just three warships, these dozens of warships of the Japanese kingdom are on their seas, and they are being turned around.

Li Chunfeng couldn't help but sigh: "This is like two people frolicking and fighting, Fu Zhu is like a normal person with sound limbs, and the warship of the Japanese Kingdom is like a clumsy man with no legs and crutches, so how can it be cheap?" In this way, such a sailboat can ensure that I have no worries on the Datang Sea for a hundred years. ”

"If you have this kind of thought, then before my Tang Sailor really becomes strong, it should decline. Ten years ago, you defeated the Wa Kingdom with an iron ball, and now the Wa Kingdom also has an iron ball, if there are no three warships, Fuzhu, Suzaku, and Xuanwu, how high do you think our victory rate will be? Are there any advantages to speak of? Li Hong asked casually, from time to time with lawlessness and Li Chunfeng, swaying with the entire hull.

Li Chunfeng smiled confidently and said, "Ten years? Even if they give it to the Wa Kingdom for 30 years, they may not be able to build such a ship, not to mention, this is what is smashed out of silver, is there so much silver in the Wa Kingdom? ”

"But we can't be complacent, so that we stand still, since we are now thirty years ahead of them, then our next goal is to be fifty years ahead of them, a hundred years!" Li Chunfeng watched a Japanese warship rushing towards Zhang Fan.

The seemingly menacing warship was hit by dozens of arquebuses that fired at the same time, and exploded on the surface of the sea in an instant, turning into a piece of debris.

At the same time, Cui Zhifen's Suzaku and Zhang Yi's Xuanwu also encountered the resistance of the warships of the Japanese Kingdom in the south and the north, but the scale of the warships encountered by Li Hong and Li Chunfeng was much smaller than that of the warships.

But even so, looking at the vulnerable and weak appearance of the warship of the Japanese Kingdom in the face of the Tang warship, it also made the two of them feel comfortable and shouted loudly on the ship.

This battle made them completely raise their eyebrows, less cautious after encountering the warships of the Japanese Kingdom, and more domineering and strong.

In this battle, the three warships were completely solved, and even disintegrated the combat effectiveness of the entire naval division of the Japanese country, and as the sun gradually set in the west, they fell heavily under the sea.

The entire western coastline of Wakoku, which is dominated by the coast of Hakata Castle, is once again silent, and the fishermen look at the calm sea in amazement, but they cannot see the joy on the faces of everyone after returning from fishing.

A white flag was slowly and shamefully raised from the port of Hakata, and then a small boat carrying three or four hurried messengers quickly rowed away from the shore and sailed out into the boundless sea.

The entire southern route of the West Sea stretches for tens of thousands of kilometers, and with Li Hong's three sailing ships, it is simply impossible to implement a real blockade.

Therefore, whether it is the Suzaku or the Xuanwu, it only sailed two or three hundred kilometers from south to north, but this is enough to deter the entire Wa country, which makes the government and the opposition of the Wa country have a huge shock.

The most important thing about the western coastline of the entire Wakoku is the narrow strait of the Seto Inland Sea, and even if you enter the hinterland of the Wakoku through the narrow strait of the Seto Inland Sea, it is like getting into the back garden of the Wakoku or your home.

Therefore, Li Hong and Li Chunfeng did not order the Fuzhu to cruise, but like scoundrels, they blocked the sea at the mouth of the Seto Inland Sea, blocked in a slightly sheltered place not far from Hakata Port, and choked the throat of the Japanese country, preventing it from breathing freely.

"Your Highness, look, a small boat is struggling to row this way, do you want to let Meng Chong ship go over to investigate?" Li Chunfeng looked at the starry sea, looked at Li Hong, who was open-chested and exposed, and asked with the sea breeze.

"Go ahead, I should have come here to talk about something, let Lawless go over to investigate, and be careful of their tricks." Li Hong lowered his arms, held the side of the ship on the bow deck, and looked into the distance, but could only vaguely see a small black shadow floating, as if a broken deck was floating on the sea during today's naval battle.
